  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message SWDP_WB_TOOL617 - No controller corresponding to view/window &1; version &2 found ?

    The SAP error message SWDP_WB_TOOL617 indicates that the system is unable to find a corresponding controller for a specific view or window in the SAP Web Dynpro application. This typically occurs during the development or runtime of a Web Dynpro application when there is a mismatch between the view and its associated controller.

    Causes:

    1. Version Mismatch: The specified version of the view does not have a corresponding controller. This can happen if the view was changed or if the controller was not properly activated after changes.
    2. Missing Controller: The controller might not exist in the system, possibly due to deletion or incorrect configuration.
    3. Transport Issues: If the application was transported from one system to another, the transport might not have included all necessary components.
    4. Development Environment Issues: Inconsistent states in the development environment, such as not activating all components after changes.

    Solutions:

    1. Check Activation: Ensure that both the view and its corresponding controller are activated in the SAP system. You can do this in the Web Dynpro component workbench (transaction code SE80).
    2. Verify Versions: Check if the correct version of the view is being referenced. You can do this by looking at the version history in the Web Dynpro component.
    3. Rebuild the Application: If you suspect that the application is in an inconsistent state, try to rebuild it by reactivating all components involved.
    4. Check Transport Requests: If the application was transported, ensure that all necessary objects were included in the transport request. You may need to re-transport missing components.
    5. Debugging: If the issue persists, consider debugging the application to trace where the error occurs and gather more context about the missing controller.

    Related Information:

    • Transaction Codes: Use SE80 for the Object Navigator to check Web Dynpro components and their activation status.
